Tuxedo
The Perfect Tobacco for Pipe
"Tux" touches the spring that releases the punch—the live wire energy—the get-there spirit. Smoke "Tux" for solid enjoyment, too—for the mellow richness and delicate fragrance of choice Burley, freed from harshness and "bite"
by the original "Tuxedo Process." You can smoke "Tux" all day long, if you like, and get a new pleasure and satisfaction out of every pipeful.

Orders for Commencement Invitations Taken in Fraser Hall
"seniors who are taking degrees this spring, and graduate students we'anex another pair of letters to their names should decide before Friday April 8 just how many Commencement Invitations they are going to order," said E. F. Cress, chairman of the invitation committee today.
Such invitations are always somewhat of a nuisance, because if one doesn't consider his friends carefully he may not secure a sufficient number to fill his demands. The advice is not to order too many—no one will do that. He should invite an invitation to commencement to send to all of your relatives and friends whom you consider close enough to appreciate the sentiment.
The invitations this year have several original features, still following, however, a number of traditional K. covers, with the exception of covers is of exceptional quality. Only 550 orders for leather covers will be taken, the total number furnished at the contract price—beyond this the price will be greater because of the war.
The paper bound invitations contain the same printing matter, and are tied with red and blue cord and tassel. No orders can be received in this manner. The committee cannot advance any of the sum themselves, or risk the refusal of invitations ordered and then not taken. Leather covers will cost 35 cents, or three for one dollar. Paper covers may also be received at the check stand in Fraser next week, and next week only (April 3rd to 9th.)
Giving quizzes is a greater effort than taking them, according to the practice teachers who are just finishing their nine weeks' work at the training school. "It's very disconcerting to realize, in looking over your class notes, that you are and how little you have taught them in spite of all the hard work and planning," one young woman was heard to remark.

Courses in Cost-Finding and Salesmanship Will be Given
Some of the greatest newspaper editors and publishers in the country will participate in the Newspaper Association's journalism at the University of Kansas from May 1 to 6. The indications of a successful conference exceed those of last year, when 251 Kansas officers in addition to 40 others, attended.
Arthur Brisane, editor of the New York Journal, Roy W. Howard president of the United Press; Chester S. Lord, managing editor of the New York Sun from 1880 to 1913; Courtland Smith, president of the American Press Association; Mark Miller, member of the New York Tribune; and Ivy Lee, of the Rockefeller Foundation, are a f·r of the big speakers of the week.
Among others who will appear upon the program are Hugu MeV, of successful Farming; G. L. Caswell, field secretary of the Iowa Press Association; Marc Morrow, of the Caper publications; E. K. Whiting, of the University; Michael Mickle, secretary of the Nashville Printer's Club; Strickland Gillian, author of humorous stories and a lyceum lecturer of note; and Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor of the National Magazine. Irvin S. Cobb has said that he will attend unless prevented by the stress of other circumstances.
IRVIN CORR MAY COME
The first three days of the Newspaper Week will be taken up by the sessions of the Missouri Valley Cost Congress and Thursday and Friday will be devoted to the short courses. The meetings of the Kansas Editorial Association will be held Friday afternoon and Saturday.
MOVIES A FEATURE
Moving picture lectures will be one of the innovations of the year's meetings. The Donald Thompson war pictures, obtained through the efforts of the Capper Publications, will be general in its appeal. A film of the merchandising department of the Chicago Tribune will be of particular interest to Kansas editors who have established the Central Bureau with the same object in view. The Strathmore Press will announce the third reel. These moving picture lectures are especially noteworthy, because an effort has been made to get away free on the purely technical and mechanical side of newspaper life.
Invitations have been extended to other noted newspaper men and their acceptances will be announced from time to time as they are received.
TO GIVE SPANISH PLAYS
Romance Language Students To Put on Roaring Comedies
Two roaring Spanish comedies to be staged in Green Hall April 29 are under way now, "La Muela Juicio," (The Wisdom Tooth), and "Los Pantalones," (Trousers), are farces by well known contemporary Spanish playwrights. Both have been given successfully on the stage. They represent geno chico or smart chico or little purely literary merit. They are interesting because of their humor of language and situation.
The plays are being directed by Prof. Mark Skidmore of the department of romance languages. Professor Skidmore directed the same play in 1910. The plays there were given by the Spanish club. Owing to the fact that forty members of this club were of Spanish extraction and spoke Spanish fluently the problem of staging the plays there was a major burden than it is here where almost all are beginners in Spanish.
Herman Lorenz went to Norman, Oklahoma Thursday where he referred a gym meet between the Uni-
lizons and Texas and the University of Oklahoma.
"The students here must be taught to pronounce as well as to interpret their parts and that makes the staging of such plays much more difficult." He explained. The last Spanish play that was given here was "El Senor Cura" (The Village Priest). It was staged two years ago in Robinson Gymnastium. The acoustic properties of the gym, however, made the staging of a play there so difficult and the exhilaration stage there was so great that Professor Skidmore decided this year to give it in Green Hall.
As Forbes-Robertson's "Hamlet" appealed to the students of English literature so the joint recital of Ossip Gabrieliowitch, the distinguished Russian pianist, and Mme. Gabrieliowitch, American contralto and the daughter of Mark Twain, is expected to appeal to the students of music with the given at the Bowery theater, Wednesday evening, April 5.
GABRILOWITCH RECITAL
ATTRACTING ATTENTION
Josie Trinkle, Eva Robinson and Mrs. Soxmann gave a spread Thursday night in Neva Watson's honor. Those present were Iva Scott, Fressa Baker, Blanche Lorimer, Amy Kincaud, Beth Kincaud, Luella Varner, Ethylin Green, Eva Robinson and Josie Trinkle.
M. Gabilowitch is of the school of Anton Rubenstein and has acquired fame both in America and Europe. He is considered by many critics of the musical world to have few equals.
Mme. Gabrieliowitch (Clara Clemens) is the only living member of the actress of the great humorist. She has been accused of being among the foremost of Lieder singers.
WHY PRESS IS UNTRUE
Prof, Thorpe Tells Why Press Cannot, Should Not, Dares Not Tell Literal Truth
THERE ARE 57 REASONS
It is Difficult To Do More Than Approximate the Truth
Prof. Merle Thorpe, head of the department of journalism, declared to his class in newspaper I Friday morning that newspapers cannot, should be printed at home or for almost as many reasons as there are Heinz varieties. Chief of these reasons were that so long as editors and writers are human and must deal with a rapidly changing newspaper can rise but little higher than the temperament of its readers.
"All of us are biased as a result of heredity, environment, religion, politics, or society and we see events that transpire through our eyes and not through the eye."
MEN LIE DIFFERENTLY
"If as reporters we do not see the events that make up the day's news, we must accept the opinions and statements of others. In newspaper work we must deal with the factors with which we have to deal. Johnny-on-the-spot reports exist only in fiction. No two people see the same thing in the same way. And even were that possible we would not press what we saw in the same way."
WHY NEWS IS OFTEN CHANGED
Quoting Robert Louis Stevenson that the majority of persons should not be allowed to use the English language because it is used so miserably. Mr. Thorpe showed how easy it is to express entirely erroneous ideas by using identical facts and expressing them in different words.
"Often new matters must be suppressed or changed in order to tell the truth." Here was cited a class scrap, at which time a student was struck over the head with a bottle bottle. Had not the reporter changed the fact of a bottle bottle to that of an ordinary bottle, the impression would have gone out that it was a simple matter to reach down in the dark and pick up a meter of face on the campus. (As a matter of face on the campus, quite often had gasoline in it.) The impression would have been entirely wrong and misleading.
"While it is true," he said, "that nine hundred and ninety-nine of the stories that are printed are accurate accounts of the day's happenings, the one story that appears that is inaccurate causes all the grief. The nine hundred and ninety-nine stories that give accurate and truthful impressions of life, one which gives an impression that is inaccurate and untruthful."
**WHYIF! VERIFY! VERIFY!**
"It is necessary that newspaper men acquire early the habit of verifying and verifying and verifying, and make the impressions intended, even if later quotes have to be changed to convey the truth that was intended to be expressed.
VERIFY! VERIFY! VERIFY!
"In spite of the difficulty of presenting the truth newspaper men work far into the night trying to approximate the truth."

An old joke on Chancellor Frank Strong was revived recently. When Evelyn Strong was quite small she was asked why she did not take her problems in arithmetic to her father by telling them. She answered, "Oh, father can do short division alright, but these are problems in long division."
On account of the Shostac recital the K. U. Debating Society did not attend the program Thursday night. The debate must be staged at next week's meeting.

High School Senior
Here's a Tip!
How much is a year worth to you? Would you like a chance to save that much time in your preparation for life?
You can do it by attending the University 46 weeks in the year instead of 36. You can, by attending three summer sessions, graduate in June, 1919 instead of June, 1920.
And you must add to your saving the "summer-
resort" pleasures of a ten weeks' stay in Lawrence.
Why not enter this June?
